He was pilot of one of two machines attempi- ing a nonstop flight from New York to Spokane. Builds Famous Planes Stinson built the plane in which Faul R. Redfern started to Souti America; the around-the-world plane of Willlam Brock and Ed ward Schlee; the Windsor, Ont., to-Windsor Castle ship of Phil Wood and Duke Schiller; tha trans-oceanic plane of Miss Rulh Elder and George Haldeman; and the London, Ont., to-London, Eng iand plane of Captain Terrence Tully and Lieut. Metcalf, and is constructing a ship in which his brother Jack expects to break the world’s endurance record. Stinson himself won the last National Air Reliability tour ia one of his own planes. More than 15 years ago Stinson began teaching himself to fly, in a Wright Brothers plane with a Z8 horsepower motor and a maxi- mum speed of 36 miles an hour. 20,000 Hours in Air He figures he has spent mora than 20,000 hours in the air, and | bis friends claim he is the dean | of American fliers.
